People can pick up groceries and other interesting items directly from growers, merchants, and other exciting entrepreneurs. These marketplaces have exploded in popularity recently and are sometimes treated like local events. Not only are farmers' markets a great way to support local businesses and the community, but they can make for great hangouts for both families and friends.
